Salses-le-Château is a commune in southern France, located in the Pyrénées-Orientales department of the Occitanie region. The town is primarily known for its impressive 15th-century fortress, the Fortress of Salses, which stands as a remarkable example of transitional military architecture between medieval castles and modern fortresses.
Built between 1497 and 1502, the fortress was designed to guard the former frontier between France and Spain. The fortress's architecture incorporates innovative defensive features that were ahead of its time, reflecting the evolution of military engineering in response to the development of artillery. Today, the fortress is managed by the Centre des Monuments Nationaux and serves as an important cultural and historical landmark.
The surrounding area is also known for its wine production, particularly within the Corbières and Rivesaltes wine regions.
